mine only did it once and that was because she was worried she called josh a little boxer every time she touched me he would kick hell outa her and kinda chase her ands round and kick her one time he didnt do it so she checked it and he wasnt amused and kicked hell outa it lol

some do it at about 20weeks an onwards at every appointment but mine just doesnt

I had a midwife appointment last week at 14w+3 and she listened to the babys heartbeat. I have heard that alot of midwifes dont listen until at least 16 weeks so I think if your midwife does check the heartbeat as part of the ante natel appoitment (because as Talica said some of them dont at all) i would of thought that she would check it for you. If not just ask if she could. X
